You can use exims 'delay' control statement to achive similar effects
with exiscan-acl. I don't know how configurable that can be made, but
you can use the full ACL power with it :)

Why? :) Just do fakereject, remember that fact in an ACL variable and
make a small router+transport combo that writes those messages
somewhere. In any format that exim supports. Actually you can do
anything that exim offers you.

Well, you can edit SA's report template to suit your needs ... :P
